The researchers conducted two independent studies and a third to evaluate the data of the subjective perception of effort in the combination of the two studies. In the two independent studies, anodal current and placebo of 2mA for 20 minutes was used, with the first study being associated with a 20 Km counter-clock cycling test, which 6 men completed. The second was performed with 8 men with a fixed intensity cycling test at 55% of maximum power and at thermal conditions of 33°C. |
